3: The realisation that people dont need half as much kit as they think they do for an event. Absolutely (in fact, I had stuff in my bergen that I...

In retrospect, it probably wasn't such a good idea to have the Jed's humping bergens to the SAS camp. They could had stashed them somwhere in between...

I agree with you on all those points Dave. As do I. Sounds like a couple of open dayers who fancy a change by dressing up for a day. Multiple weapo...

It would be sufficiently different from Jedburgh to give its' own character. We could follow IED's format without their participation - Guy seems to ...

I'd be happy to stand corrected over the hot guns. My knowledge is based on hearing them bragging about a 600fps SLR and a 500fps AK47 at Bryansk. I...

Incidentally, Guy had an idea that merits discussion and that is getting the IED crew to be opfor. They can do the shitty hard graft, moving under dur...

We even arranged an RV on the Sunday which they didn't stick to. Yes, I almost forgot that! Steve and I eventually got to bed at around 0100hrs on s...

Expect a PBI version soon? You know, the whole event cut down into 45 minute segments, on a site that CiA have already used...... I'm only giving od...

Slick, hopefully, we'll do something similar in the future, maybe with the roles of the sides reversed. For now, I think it's nice to reflect in hind...

I have a spare M1 helmet. It has a regular infantry chinstrap rather than an airborne one though That would be fine for glider infantry.

I noticed he was having a look too. Very satisfying that it's nothing but glowing reports to read, it's made all the more worthwhile than it already ...

I picked that waterbottle up on saturday and dropped it in the base camp OP along with the radio. I saw either Josh or Dai drinking from it, so, assu...

I was actually quietly and, somewhat grudgingly, shocked by Josh. I had expected him to be a total dick. But, once he dropped the stupid Polish acce...

Bear in mind, there were lots of units in 7th Armoured and, they didn't just fight in Africa. I have a set of BD badged up as 8th Hussars, who were t...

Thankyou Martin! To all who attended the event - wear your ribbon with pride!

I really thought that you'd get Josh, Jay. As far as I knew on sunday, he and his 2 mates were sacking it and staying at his van. I was very surpris...

The Germans who bumped the Jed's have no idea of the knock on effect that it had on the SAS operations. We were supposed to RV with the Jed's at 1700...

Sarj, that sounds great and all just about my size down to boots too! I'd be most greatful if I could borrow your gear on a " break it buy it&quo...

I think that the allies were too busy to get any pictures. These are the only ones I got on my camera phone, all taken on sunday. The view from the ...
